Have an hds live on the dash and a new structurescan module/transducer. Has anyone found that for images on down/side scan you have to turn up the contrast quite high?

If you have the 3in1 transducer, put it on 455 and start with A+1, and on Downscan on auto and start with 69% contrast. Both will give you a good starting point on most lakes/depths/DFW lake water clarity and go up or down from there.

Not on the Live/Carbons. It’s only sensitivity auto/+-

Overall screen brightness is hit power button quick, then hit brightness to adjust. Guessing you probably knew that tho

I had to get a new 3 in 1 transducer under warranty when I first got my Live unit. The DI had no brightness until I turned contrast up on max, wouldn't see fish or bait. Now with new transducer, it shows good DI images on either auto or +1 on contrast.
